ABOUT THE LATINO NEWSLETTER
The Latino Newsletter is an independent, no-paywall, newsletter-first newsroom and production studio covering the issues shaping Latino life and influence in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Founded by award-winning journalist and media executive Julio Ricardo Varela, the Boston-based nonprofit pairs proximity reporting with national relevance through premium daily coverage and content. Stories and creators are distributed via newsletters, podcasts, social channels, and open syndication to outlets that seek to amplify Latino voices. The Latino Newsletter upholds rigorous editorial standards and is committed to delivering accessible, high-quality journalism.
Organization Mission: The Latino Newsletter is a nonprofit media platform amplifying the voices of underrepresented Latino communities through high-quality journalism, commentary, and multimedia projects. We provide culturally relevant and accessible content to inform, engage, and empower our community.
Organization Vision: To be the indispensable, trusted voice for Latino communities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico — expanding reach and deepening impact to redefine the journalism landscape and Latino media in the digital age.
Organization UVP: The Latino Newsletter delivers premium, independent daily journalism and commentary with a rigorous tone, setting the terms of mainstream coverage by making Latino expertise the starting point — not the add-on. As part of our current strategic plan, The Latino Newsletter will continue expansion into local bureaus across the United States and Puerto Rico.
